KOOL, let me asap.

Is the DATSUN available yet?

SWEET

I use something similar to this. You will be supriesed at how much parts you can cram into it. Just check out your local DEPT. store fishing supplies area. There are all types like this. http://cgi.ebay.com/Plano-Guide-Series-tac...%3A1|240%3A1318

BRA', I love this thread. Makes me want to go out and build one TOO Your UPDATES are going to be a BIG help.

Not really the ones you want but similar. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=15193

Thats part of the hobby. Most people spend more then that on PAINT. Let alone after market parts. Buy the kit, take what you want/need. Then toss the rest into the "PARTS" box. Or try to sell/trade the rest of the "KIT".

35 or 36 depends on what day you read this. LOL

Thanks, can't wait.

Any updates on the DATSUN????????????????????

I would like to have this one casted. I have just one more LEFT. Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki Hosted on Fotki

LOL,VERY BAD. Gregg,can you PM/email me there number?

Thanks for the HELP.

TTT Hey,guys me and my brother in-law are thinking of getting the AXIAL scorpion. Is it a good base for bigginers? We know jack about crawling. But it looks like fun. Any help would be kool.

There's quit a few out there. Greg being one of them, Rollinoldschool, timemachine. I know there's more on oahu. I'm on kauai, if he comes here i can show him around on my days off.

HUH, whats that?

LOL,yup just a brief history (more like a side note). Not the old. Brothers, uncle's,father's.friend, knew the guy would had owned it. But for what it is it's really a sweet looking thing. Can't wait till it ends. I sure hope it sells for the seller's sake.LOL

Yeah,I kinda agree. But you never know. If it where complete/running. I'd Say it would fetch about $40-50 grand easy. But in this state Around $20-25 thousand. But then again with the resurgence of DRAG memorabilia. Anything with history is worth "GOLD".

Hey, guys here's an auction of interest. I have nothing to do with this auction. Just wanna see what happens. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...825471&rd=1

Looking for any toyota's. Carrola,hilux,etc....

Nice.VERY nice. Makes me want to build one now.

I think Loza's "Electric Death" variable was sick.

Then why the "HELL" did you bring it up? No one would have known (cared), What religion you are. If you never brought it up,right? Your religion don't bother me. If it matters to you. Have a nice DAY

WOW, I like this thread. I can't recall how old I was when my dad got me started in the hobby. I'd say 7/8. I can recall going to Hobby Co. at pearlridge center on oahu (HI), in the late 70's. Man i remember just grabbing anything that caught my eye. Also remember back then other stores had models too. Woolworths, holidaymart, Long's. I remember thinking $4-5 was alot for a kit. Thank god My dad was in the hobby also. Then we moved to Kauai (HI), in 85'. And not much stores carried models here. But low and behold with in a year or so after we moved here. Hobby Co happens to open at the local mall, Kukui Grove. All though it did not last too long. We where stoked. We would spend about $200 a visit. We where so popular with all the workers there. In fact after awhile. We had dibs on anything that would come in. They actually had our number. The manager would give us a call when they had a new shipment. They would tell us what came in. We would tell them which kits we wanted. We bought a lot of the Johan,revell,monogram,amt kit's that they had in stock. And they put it on the side for us. just like that. I remember having times when they would hold it for weeks. Because our tab was so big. But we always got it taken cared of. We where very sad when they closed. I'm still in contact with two of the former workers. Now, I do all my buying on the internet. unless i'm on Oahu,then i go to The same ol' faith full pearlridge Hobby Co. But i'm not complaining. I just got one of my co-workers back in the hobby. He comes to my house/hobby shop. And doesn't want to go home,LOL.

LOL, me too. Ours shut down about 5yrs also. I remember one time they had BOGO on models and they where marked at $5. I snagged everything they had. Bought about 20 kits that day. LOL, 10 of them where lindberg "Littlered wagons".
